On May 11^th, the latest research result of a research team led by Jin Xianmin, School of Physics and Astronomy of Shanghai Jiao Tong University has been published on the scientific journal the Science Advances, a sub-journal of the Science, titled "Experimental Two-dimensional Quantum Walk on a Photonic Chip". Their study demonstrated the world's largest-scaled 3D photonic quantum chip and a 2D quantum walk in real spatial space. Meanwhile, it is the first domestic photonic chip. This study provides a powerful platform for further studies on analog quantum computers.

Recently the research group led by Prof. Yujie Wang, School of Physics and Astronomy, SJTU, significantly advanced our understanding about the relaxation dynamics of granular materials on the level of the particles. This work, obtained in collaboration with Prof. Jie Zhang from SJTU, Haipeng Dong from Ruijin Hospital, SJTU School of Medicine and Prof. Walter Kob from the University of Montpellier, France has just been published in Nature with the title ”Granular materials flow like complex fluids” [Nature 551, 360–363(2017)] on Nov 1,2017.
